Subject: [PATCH v2] Clean up pgoutput schema cache when streamed transactions
 prepare

pgoutput remembers the top-level XID for each relation whose schema it
sends in a streamed transaction. Stream commit and abort remove these
entries, but a streamed transaction that prepares does not take either
path. The entries can remain after COMMIT PREPARED or ROLLBACK PREPARED
until the relation cache entry is rebuilt or the walsender exits.

Clean them up after sending STREAM PREPARE. The subscriber processes the
spooled relation messages at prepare time, and the relation mapping cache
is not rolled back by ROLLBACK PREPARED. Use the same schema_sent handling
as stream commit. This also avoids keeping the entries while the prepared
transaction waits for its final outcome.
